Voracious

Although the once voluptuous Award-winning Actress AA has turned heavier over the years, her appeal has not diminished, according to her admirers. Her onscreen presence still makes for good copy. It is probably for this reason why AA seems not that much bothered by her size.

AA was a welcome surprise for her playing a significant role in a Primetime Soap PS, a far cry from her many serious portrayals during her heyday which won not a few acting awards for her. Back then, her public life, particularly her lovelife often elicited major controversies, too. But not long after, her innate talent overshadowed such controversies.

On the set of PS during tapings, some people have allegedly observed how AA seems to have a huge appetite for food. Reportedly, AA's mouth seems to be always busy. Whether she is memorizing a script or just chatting with friends, she is always busy chewing. Her behavior seems like a turn-off to some people as AA looks thrilled everytime she would see food. She must really have been over with preserving her image that she doesn’t give a damn how she gorges on food.

AA was once quoted that her previous television project was one she would not forget if only for the hearty buffet they were served everyday. She said that working for that project seemed not work at all because of the daily food bonanza.

One taping day of PS, AA was in her usual gorging habit. She kept munching non-stop that during mid-day of the shoot, she seemed bloated already. After awhile, AA was called for her scene. As she was delivering her dialogue, some staff heard that she passed off gas, then a sudden foul-smell permeated the air. Shock was written all over AA' s face before she rushed to the portalet. Turned out, some drippings were already running through her legs! Hahaha!

Korina Sanchez Denies Rumors, Explains Absence from ‘TV Patrol’

ABS-CBN news anchor Korina Sanchez denied reports that she was told to go on vacation by ABS-CBN.

Last Sunday, Pilipino Star Ngayon showbiz editor Salve Asis reported her sources believed Korina was told to go on vacation by her home network for a statement she made against CNN journalist Anderson Cooper. Korina was not present during the Friday, November 15, and Monday, November 18 broadcast of ABS-CBN’s primetime newscast

But in an interview with Jasmine Romero in the DZMM program “Rated Korina” Tuesday morning, November 18, Korina said the speculations about her absence are not true.

“Yung mga espekulasyon, hindi naman totoo ‘yan,” Korina told Romero, who is pinch-hitting for her during her absence.

The “TV Patrol” co-anchor said she is visiting areas that were “nasalanta ng iba’t ibang delubyo” for her news magazine program “Rated K.”

Among the areas they visited, Korina said, are Ormoc and Bohol. She and her team were supposed to go to Tacloban but ABS-CBN did not allow her “dahil delikado raw.”

Korina added they are about to go to Capiz, Iloilo and Palawan.

She said people should not speculate about her absence from her programs.

"So, ayun, uulitin ko lang, matagal nang naiplano itong paglilibot na ito,” Korina said. "Huwag lang sanang pilit na ikinokonekta sa iba pang bagay, ha?”

Supreme Court Declares PDAF Unconstitutional

SC: Prosecute government officials

Congress stricken off powers over lump sums

The Supreme Court has declared the priority development assistance fund (PDAF) – from past and present budgets – unconstitutional.

The high court voted 14-0. Associate Justice Presbitero Velasco inhibited. His son is a member of the House of Representatives.

The SC also ruled that the Malampaya fund can only be used for energy-related projects and not “ for such other purposes as may be hereafter directed by the President.” The justices voted 13-1.

The PDAF was supposedly siphoned to ghost projects. Some senators have been tagged in the scam, allegedly perpetrated by businesswoman Janet Lim Napoles.

SC spokesperson Theodore Te confirmed the news. Reading the decision penned by Associate Justice Estela Perlas-Bernabe, he said the following have been declared unconstitutional, among others:

a) The entire 2013 PDAF article

b) All legal provisions of past and present Congressional Pork Barrel Laws, such as the previous PDAF and Countrywide Development Fund (CDF) Articles and the various Congressional Insertions, which authorized legislators – whether individually or collectively organized into committees – to intervene, assume or participate in any of the various post-enactment stages of the budget execution, such as but not limited to the areas of project identification, modification and revision of project identification, fund release and/or fund realignment unrelated to the power of Congressional oversight

c) All legal provisions of past and present Congressional pork barrel laws such as the previous PDAF and CDF Articles and the various Congressional insertions which confer or conferred personal, lump sum allocations to legislators from which they are able to fund specific projects which they themselves determined

d) All informal practices of similar import and effect, which the court similarly deems to be acts of grave abuse of discretion amounting to lack or excess of discretion.

Malampaya only for energy projects

The same decision also declared unconstitutional the phrase “and for such other purposes as may be hereafter directed by the President” under section 8 of Presidential Decree 910.

Adopted in 1976, the presidential fiat cited rules for the use of royalties from oil and gas finds in the country only for the financing of “energy resource development and exploitation programs and projects of the government.”

Parts of the Malampaya funds were also allegedly used for ghost projects. Some farmers earlier denied receiving aid for rehabilitation of their agricultural programs.

Te said the funds covered by the decision must be returned to the national coffers of the government. “The funds covered by the Malampaya funds and the Presidential Social Fund which shall remain therein to be utilized for their respective special purposes [only].”

The high court was also adamant in its call to prosecute those who plundered the lump sums.
The decision reads: “The court hereby directs all prosecutorial organs of the government to, within bounds of reasonable dispatch, investigate and accordingly prosecute all government officials and/or private individuals for criminal offenses.”

The National Bureau of Investigation already filed plunder raps against Napoles; senators Juan Ponce Enrile, Ramon “Bong” Revilla, Jr., and Jose “Jinggoy” Estrada; and several individuals.

Yesterday, the Office of the Ombudsman has ordered the respondents to file their counter affidavits.

Love Talk

Image courtesy of www.twoapplesaday.org

Actress and Endorser AE is looking good in spite of her recent breakup with her Former Beau FB. From her demeanor and facial expression, it is quite evident that AE has quickly moved on. She and FB have confirmed that there was no third party involved on their split-up. Taking that aside, the glow on AE's face seems to say a thousand words - she looks lovelier and more peaceful.

The private and unassuming AE values and prioritizes her family above all else. Even at the height of her popularity where she had to make a crucial decision at some point, it was her family whom she chose hands down.

AE is by and large, a woman of substance and character, someone who is private and mysterious, especially when it comes to her personal life. Unlike other stars who thrive on scandals and controversies to gain publicity, AE strives to be as private as possible. Yet being a popular celebrity, she can only do as much.

AE was spotted in a very exclusive island resort allegedly with a male companion – a wealthy- looking and sophisticated Bank Executive BE. Within his social circle, BE is known to be a no nonsense corporate man who moves with the crème dela crème of banking and business.

Although AE and BE move in different worlds, they are reportedly each other 's constant company. From a source, AE likes it that they have a common interest – the passion for an expensive hobby. People who are privy to the couple attest that given BE's intimidating background, AE is the least to get threatened or overwhelmed by him.

To some extent, AE looks cool and comfortable with her relationship with BE inspite of the obvious difference in their social status. After all, she seems to have really looked for and welcomed this development.

Reportedly, after coming from "childish relationships," AE feels it's now her turn to get pampered and spoiled.

Letter from a Reader: Reader Refutes Allegations of Tacloban Mayor Alfred Romualdez

Image courtesy of www.taclobanhotels.com

Hello Mike! I just want to share with you the facts about your post on Tacloban Mayor Romualdez. I am writing to correct several inaccuracies and to set the records straight following the days before typhoon Yolanda hit our city.

Monday. There was already warning. People knew about the possibility of storm surge given the wind speed.

Tuesday was the same thing.

Wednesday. The city administrator met with barangay captains in preparation for Yolanda. CDRRMC, presided by the city administrator, convened in the afternoon with all department heads & others involved. Preventive evacuation was in place.

Thursday. It was a warm, sunny day. It was the calm before the storm. Forced evacuation was enforced. By 3pm, evacuation center was full.

Friday. Yolanda came by early morning. It was like being inside a big washing machine, only much worse, as we did not know which direction we were being blown away. Storm surge was expected but never thought it to go 8-12 ft sometimes 15 ft high.

All through out that week, Mayor Romualdez was MIA aka Missing in Action!
He was only seen Thursday afternoon to early evening upon the arrival of Secretaries Roxas & Gazmin & attended PDRRMC meeting with City Administrator.

I only found out that he was at Patio Victoria, their family beach resort 5 days after Yolanda. Prior to that, there were stories circulating that he & his family were missing because of the damage to their house. There were reports too that they were actually in their high rise building in the city downtown.

What I'm trying to say is that Mayor Romualdez is publicity hungry & he will do anything to get publicity at the expense of his suffering people.

In one of the meetings last Wednesday, CDRRMC was reminded of the many warnings and how these precautionary measures can be executed properly. In all fairness, everybody took them to heart and listened - but NOT Mayor Romualdez - because he was NOT around.

No one could have been prepared enough for Yolanda & it angers me that instead of commandeering his ship, our Mayor chose to squeeze blood from this tragedy in order to push for his PR stint.

We have a long road ahead to rebuild our beautiful city. Armed with the strong Filipino spirit, we will rise again!

Tindog Tacloban!

Truthfully yours,

Meldy
